>> http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/business/wesley-a-clark-made-computing-personal-dies-at-88.html?ref=business. As an owner of a piece of a LINC, I've corresponded with the LINC engineers, who to this day work on or support the remaining LINCs in 
various collections. It's sad to hear that Wesley Clark passed away recently at 88. The NYT article notes his involvement with Whirlwind and SAGE and other notable computers of the 1950's. He will be missed.

I wrote about this four days before the Times. :)
